Bloggs Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hi, thought that I'd say hello as I've been perusing the forum for a couple of weeks now... I live in the Norwich area and I've just started out in the clay busting business, I was introduced to it by a friend and I'm totally smitten, can't get enough It's been something that I've wanted to do for years but with other hobbies/interests just never got round to it.... I've just sent off my application for a license and I'm now looking to purchase a gun and take a few lessons. There seems to be a vast array to choose from....! I've been advised to look at a second hand Beretta or Browning to start with I really do like the look of the Browning Cynergy and the gun fits good, just wondering what peoples thoughts are on this particular gun...? There seems to be mixed reviews about it from what I've read on the Internet. Anyway, enough of me rambling on! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitebridges Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 A warm welcome. Make sure the gun fits and it's well worth popping up to see Mike Reynolds and team at the Norfolk Shooting School at Taverham if you haven't been there already.

Bloggs Posted October 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Many thanks for the warm welcome, I feel at home already Whitebridges, I wasn't aware of the training at Taverham, I'll look them up on the internet and arrange some lessons, thanks for the recommendation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went into Churchill's in Dereham on Friday and met a very nice chap called Steve. They had a second hand Cynergy which I very nearly left a deposit on - then I thought it's best to wait until the certificate is approved We also discussed lessons as well.

Good luck with learning to shoot, i'm still trying and i've only been at it 40+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to PW, You'd do well to keep a look out for the next Norfolk Flush, it's probably as much fun as you can have in a field without any sheep. Great fun, great bunch of people including the bloke who reckons his wife can't count for toffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
